Well for 10+ exp in Lebanon the maximum you can get as an employee is 5000/month ( This if you are working in a really big company)

In Quebec, the engineers I work with now, have 8 years of experience and there salary is 110 000/year, after taxes 75 000/year aka 6250$

This is other than the bonuses they make every year ( around 15 000 and more)...

WIth all the respect to LU students, but you're comparing McGill to LU?

The order of Engineers of Lebanon pays you too, and they are almost the same. You need RRSP to live after 60 in Canada because what they give is as much as the order of engineers in Beirut gives you ya3ni shi 500$
Do you know how much fee you have to pay in order to stay in the order?

And here the government pays you "7asab" your yearly income...

You don't have to heat as much as you heat in here and that's a fortune in the winter of Quebec, unless you live in those miserable building in St Laurent where the ceiling falls on the garage, the heating is included there

That's not true, and even if it is, we are talking about 50$ a month difference maximum. Drink less beer in Quebec a draft costs 8$ in a bar, in there it cost 4,000LL.
hehe funny...


Anyway it doesn't matter... but I've worked here and I've worked there and met managers and project engineers and that's impression that I have...

Thank you!!
